Abstract: Spatial pattern of tree species, sizes and ages affects functional processes and biodiversity of forest ecosystems. Therefore, it is more and more important that stand structural diversity can be assessed through easy-to-implement methodologies at forest management scale. This paper discusses the application of a recently proposed index (the Winkelmass index) of tree spatial aggregation, based on the measurement of the angles between neighboring stems, to a beech (Fagus sylvatica L.) forest in Northern Latium (Italy). Results shows that the Winkelmass index can be implemented in a simple and fast way according to objective sampling schemes and allows to produce a raster map of tree aggregation pattern in the forest. Under the stand condition in the test area, only four trees at each sample point were sufficient to characterize prevailing stand horizontal structure.

Abstract: Chestnut stands are among the main forest formations in Italy. The aim of this work is to assess the floristic diversity of chestnut coppice stands of Sabatini Mts. (central Italy), highlighting the relationships between the silvicultural system and the ecological processes. In the management of these coppices almost exclusive importance has been given to the wood production, rating the stands on the basis of the rotation that maximizes the production of the most valuable assortments. The assessment carried out is based on floristic and dendrometric surveys within permanent circular plots (10 meters radius) randomly selected within three chronological strata. Surveys have been realized on a total of 15 plots, 5 for each stratum. Indices of floristic richness and diversity have been elaborated to point out variations of forest types and to suggest possible alternatives to the current management to mitigate its impact on biodiversity.

Abstract: The Decision Support System called “ProgettoBosco”, build up for preparing sustainable forest management plans, has been tested as an educational tool at the university level in Italy. This software was succesfully tested with the collaboration of 120 students from the Forestry Faculties of Turin and Tuscia (Viterbo). We show here that using this software students were able to organize effectively data, that have been used to compile, in a rather short time (one week), two forest managent plans, having an extension of 250 and 100 ha.

Abstract: Questo testo didattico, focalizzato su piani e programmi deputati al governo delle superfici forestali a diversi livelli di scala nel nostro Paese, è orientato a presentare e discutere il ruolo degli strumenti di pianificazione forestale all’interno del più ampio scenario di strategie e norme per il governo del territorio intessuto dai piani di matrice urbanistico-territoriale e ambientale e dagli strumenti di valutazione ambientale integrata. Chiave di lettura della trattazione è l’applicazione di un approccio ecologico nelle varie fasi del processo di pianificazione. Esso si traduce nel ricorso a strumenti di indagine e di procedure valutative funzionali a: (i) mettere in luce opportunità e limiti da considerare nella gestione dei territori forestali al fine di garantire la durevolezza e riproducibilità dei beni e servizi da essi erogati, dalla scala locale a quella di paesaggio; ciò tenuto anche conto della varietà di regimi di protezione delle aree forestali applicati nel nostro Paese; (ii) garantire la sostenibilità ecologica delle trasformazioni territoriali e, dunque, anche la salvaguardia dei sistemi forestali, mediante strumenti specifici di valutazione e di tutela ambientale integrata. In relazione a ciò uno dei principali obiettivi didattici (e questo rappresenta una novità, almeno con riferimento al panorama della letteratura di settore in Italia) è il tentativo di integrare in un quadro organico e di lettura non eccessivamente specialistica i vari aspetti ecologici, normativo-procedurali e tecnico-gestionali coinvolti.2010-12-31T23:00:00ZThe application of the ecosystem approach through sustainable forest management: an Italian case study.Barbati, AnnaCorona, PiermariaPortoghesi, LuigiIovino, FrancescoMarchetti, MarcoMenguzzato, Giulianohttp://hdl.handle.net/2067/19042011-07-21T06:51:54Z2009-12-31T23:00:00ZTitle: The application of the ecosystem approach through sustainable forest management: an Italian case study.

Abstract: During the last decades adapting silvicultural systems to a changed society, increasingly aware of the multifunctional role of forests, was a much debated issue in Italy. Stemming from this discussion is the systemic silviculture concept, an adaptive forest management tool aimed at cultivating the forest as a self-organizing system and focusing on sustaining its functional efficiency as the best way to enhance forest multi-functionality. This concept has much connection with the Ecosystem Approach defined by the Convention on Biological Diversity as a strategy for the integrated management of land, water and living resources that promotes conservation and sustainable use in an equitable way. In the following a case study is presented where the principles of systemic silviculture are implemented in the management of private and common forest properties in the Serre mountains of the Calabria Region (Italy); relationships with the Ecosystem Approach principles are analyzed in order to evaluate to what extent systemic silviculture can be regarded as a means to bring the EA to the implementation level.2009-12-31T23:00:00ZFORFUN: a computerezed tool to create a ranking of relative importance for forest functions at stand scalePortoghesi, LuigiAlivernini, AlessandroCimini, DoraBertani, RemoMarchetti, MarcoCorona, Piermariahttp://hdl.handle.net/2067/23582013-09-19T23:05:31Z2012-12-31T23:00:00ZTitle: FORFUN: a computerezed tool to create a ranking of relative importance for forest functions at stand scale

Abstract: FORFUN (FORest FUNctions) is a computerized tool designed to assign a score to the functions of the forest in a given forest compartment, ranking them in order of importance. To this end a multicriteria algorithm is employed using two criteria: site suitability and stand aptitude for the given functions. For each criterion and for each function a group of indicators represented as GIS layers was chosen. The two criteria can be attributed roughly the same weight as assessed by the planner. The result can be corrected with a coefficient expressing the relative importance assigned to each function by the stakeholders through questionnaires whose outcome are processed by a Saaty matrix.2012-12-31T23:00:00ZConversion of clearcut beech coppices into high forests with continuous cover: A case study in central ItalyCiancio, OrazioCorona, PiermariaLamonaca, AndreaPortoghesi, LuigiTravaglini, Davidehttp://hdl.handle.net/2067/20662011-05-03T00:35:33Z2005-12-31T23:00:00ZTitle: Conversion of clearcut beech coppices into high forests with continuous cover: A case study in central Italy

Abstract: Converting coppices into high forests with continuous cover has often been established during the last decades as a management goal in hilly and mountainous Mediterranean areas to attenuate the negative effects that frequent clearcutting may have on soil, landscape and biodiversity conservation. The silvicultural tool usually adopted for this purpose is the gradual thinning of sprouts during the long span of time required to complete the conversion, that also allows the owner to keep harvesting some wood. This research compared the effects of various thinning intensities (three treatments plus control) on the stand growth and structure of a beech coppice with standards. The optimal density after thinning was assessed by expressing mean tree spacing as a function of main stand attributes like stand height and stand dbh. This system was preferred to the empirical evaluation of the percentage of basal area to be removed in order to give forest managers general reference guidelines to adapt to the varying environments of the Mediterranean mountains. Results confirmed that the positive effects of thinning on mean stem volume is due more to the higher diameter increment than to different height growth. The acceleration of crown growth in the thinned plots allowed canopy closure to be achieved 13 years after thinning. This reduced the negative effects of the opening of the stand overlayer and the elimination of most suppressed trees on soil protection. Under the conditions examined, the best thinning intensity proved to be a stand density 20% lower than normal prescribed by the yield tables elaborated for beech high forests in Central and Southern Italy.2005-12-31T23:00:00ZConversion of Mountain Beech Coppices into High Forest: An Example for Ecological IntensificationMattioli, WalterFerrari, BarbaraGiuliarelli, DiegoLeone, Leone DavidePortoghesi, LuigiCorona, Piermariahttp://hdl.handle.net/2067/26942015-11-06T00:05:25Z2014-12-31T23:00:00ZTitle: Conversion of Mountain Beech Coppices into High Forest: An Example for Ecological Intensification

Abstract: Converting beech coppices into high forest
stands has been promoted in the last decades as a management goal to attenuate the negative effects that frequent clearcutting may have on soil, landscape, and biodiversity
conservation. The silvicultural tool usually adopted is the gradual thinning of shoots during the long span of time required to complete the conversion, that also allows the
owner to keep harvesting some wood. This research reports and discusses, in the light of the ecological intensification
approach, the results achieved from an experimental test
started more than 25 years ago in a 42-year-old beech
(Fagus sylvatica L.) coppice with standards in central Italy.
The effects of various thinning intensities (three treatments plus a control) on the stand growth and structure are assessed by successive forest inventories. Analyses are integrated by spatial indices to assess stem density and
canopy cover. Converting beech coppices into high forest through gradual thinning of shoots proves to be an effective step down the road to silvicultural systems characterized by continuous forest cover, as a tool of ecological intensifi-
cation suitable to guarantee both public and private interests.
Thinning has led to stands with fewer but larger stems, thus accelerating the long conversion process while maintaining
both wood harvesting capability and environmental services.2014-12-31T23:00:00ZPianificazione forestale di indirizzo territoriale.

Abstract: Estimation and mapping of forest attributes are a fundamental support for
forest management planning. This study describes a practical experimentation
concerning the use of design-based k-Nearest Neighbors (k-NN) approach to estimate
and map selected attributes in the framework of inventories at forest
management level. The study area was the Chiarino forest within the Gran Sasso
and Monti della Laga National Park (central Italy). Aboveground biomass and
current annual increment of tree volume were selected as the attributes of interest
for the test. Field data were acquired within 28 sample plots selected
by stratified random sampling. Satellite data were acquired by a Landsat 5 TM
multispectral image. Attributes from field surveys and Landsat image processing
were coupled by k-NN to predict the attributes of interest for each
pixel of the Landsat image. Achieved results demonstrate the effectiveness of
the k-NN approach for statistical estimation, that is compatible with the produced
forest attribute raster maps and also proves to be characterized, in the
considered study case, by a precision double than that obtained by conventional
inventory based on field sample plots only.

Authors: Portoghesi, Luigi; Consalvo, Marco; Angelini, Alice; Ferrari, Barbara; Barbati, Anna; Castaldi, Cristiano; Corona, Piermaria
Abstract: The conifer reforestations established during the last century in many mountainous areas of Central and Southern Italy allowed the restoration of thousands of hectares of degraded bare lands. During the
last sixty years many social and environmental functions were added to such forests and now they require
a multifunctional management approach. A 100-years old reforestation with black pine (Pinus nigra
Arnold) located in a mountain tourist area and within a Natura 2000 site in Central Italy was taken into consideration as a case study. The stands, although even-aged and dense, have a diversified structure as
a consequence of localized wind throws and the growth of an underlayer of hardwoods. The traditional,
timber production-oriented management based on strip clear cutting has shown to be inapplicable in such
a context. Systemic silviculture grasps this challenge as it assumes as fundamental management goal the search for the functional efficiency of the forest ecosystem. In such a perspective silvicultural practices are guided by an adaptive approach, based on trial and error, rather than on so-called normalisation
schemes. Starting from the concept that forest is a complex, self-regulating, dynamically changing system,a management trajectory is proposed to foster the gradual succession of the pine stands towards different
types of pure and mixed hardwood forest according to site conditions. The basic silvicultural criterion is to reduce gradually the pine cover by thinning and opening of small gaps in order to increase tree age and
size diversity. The public incentives necessary to implement this sort of management are justified by the goal of increasing the functionality and resilience of the forest system: both elements can reduce the risk
of damages for the forests. This paper aims to provide general considerations on such issues in the form of a commentary discussion with reference to the considered case study.; I rimboschimenti di conifere realizzati durante il secolo scorso in molte aree montuose del Centro e Sud Italia hanno permesso il recupero di migliaia di ettari
di terreni nudi soggetti a erosione. Negli ultimi 60 anni,
in aggiunta a quella protettiva, altre funzioni sociali e ambientali sono state attribuite a tali popolamenti per la cui gestione è ora richiesto un approccio multifunzionale.
Come caso di studio è stato preso in considerazione un rimboschimento di 100 anni di pino nero (Pinus nigra Arnold ) situato in una zona turistica in Abruzzo, all’interno di un sito Natura 2000. I popolamenti,
sebbene nel complesso puri e omogenei, presentano
a tratti struttura diversificata a causa di schianti da vento localizzati e il conseguente sviluppo di uno strato inferiore di latifoglie autoctone in corrispondenza delle
aperture della copertura. I tradizionali metodi di pianificazione
forestale, orientati alla produzione legnosa
e basati sul taglio raso a strisce per favorire la rinnovazione del pino, sono risultati inapplicabili in un tale contesto
a causa della scarsa redditività della coltivazione.
Viene qui proposto un diverso approccio alla gestione dei rimboschimenti, basato sull’adozione della selvicoltura
sistemica, ponendo come obiettivo fondamentale la ricerca dell’efficienza funzionale dell’ecosistema forestale.
In questa prospettiva le pratiche selvicolturali sono guidate da un approccio adattativo, basato sul metodo per tentativi ed eliminazione degli errori, piuttosto
che sui cosiddetti sistemi di normalizzazione. Partendo dal concetto che il bosco è un sistema complesso, capace
di auto-regolazione e in continuo cambiamento,
l’articolo propone una traiettoria di gestione in grado di favorire la graduale successione della pineta verso diversi
tipi forestali in base alle condizioni micro-stazionali
presenti nell’area rimboschita. Il criterio colturale è di ridurre gradualmente la copertura del pino mediante
diradamenti e l’apertura di piccole buche per aumentare nel tempo la diversità di specie, età e dimensione degli alberi senza bruschi mutamenti del paesaggio. Gli incentivi pubblici necessari per attuare questo tipo di
interventi sono giustificati dall’obiettivo di aumentare la funzionalità e la resilienza del sistema forestale: entrambi gli elementi possono ridurre il rischio di danni
per le foreste. Questo lavoro si propone di fornire considerazioni generali su tali questioni nella forma di una discussione con riferimento al caso di studio analizzato.2012-12-31T23:00:00ZEmpirical modelling of chestnut coppice yield for Cimini and Vicani mountains (Central Italy)Angelini, AliceMattioli, WalterMerlini, PaoloCorona, PiermariaPortoghesi, Luigihttp://hdl.handle.net/2067/25942014-03-21T00:05:32Z2012-12-31T23:00:00ZTitle: Empirical modelling of chestnut coppice yield for Cimini and Vicani mountains (Central Italy)
Authors: Angelini, Alice; Mattioli, Walter; Merlini, Paolo; Corona, Piermaria; Portoghesi, Luigi
Abstract: The prescription of stand rotation according to site conditions and economic targets requires yield information that expresses
stand productivity under different site-classes. This is particularly relevant for the optimal management of chestnut coppices
allowing the production of timber assortments sized differently. This paper reports a new yield model built for chestnut coppices of
the Cimini and Vicani mountains (Central Italy), according to three site index classes. The model focuses on the development of
stands after an intense thinning carried out at the ages of 13-14 years. The model is compared with two previous yield tables built for
chestnut coppice forests living in the same area and including one site index class only. The study stresses the high productivity of
chestnut coppices growing on the volcanic soils of Cimini and Vicani mountains and shows how the growth course following intense
thinning allows to get stems with large mean volume at the end of rotation. In the light of the most recent studies on the causes of
ring shake, i.e. the most relevant defect of chestnut wood, the negative consequences on timber quality originating from the current
thinning regime are also outlined.2012-12-31T23:00:00ZMonitoraggio come strumento della gestione forestale sistemicaPortoghesi, LuigiMarchetti, MarcoScotti, RobertoCorona, Piermariahttp://hdl.handle.net/2067/26362014-09-08T23:05:43Z2013-12-31T23:00:00ZTitle: Monitoraggio come strumento della gestione forestale sistemica

Abstract: This paper reviews the literature relating to the relationship between light availability in the understory and the main
qualitative and quantitative attributes of stand overstory usually considered in forest management and planning (species composition,
density, tree sizes, etc.) as well as their changes as consequences of harvesting. The paper is divided in two sections: the fi rst one
reviews studies which investigated the infl uence of species composition on understory light conditions; the second part examines
research on the relationships among stand parameters determined from mensurational fi eld data and the radiation on understory layer.
The objective was to highlight which are the most signifi cant stand traits and management features to build more practical models
for predicting light regimes in any forest stand and, in more general terms, to support forest managers in planning and designing
silvicultural treatments that retain structure in different way in order to meet different objectives.2015-02-26T23:00:00ZIl progetto LIFE+Fagus.
